Our Focus
IRS letters, growing balances, and unfiled years do not get better on their own. David Rike has spent three decades negotiating with the IRS on behalf of clients, and we start every engagement the same way: with a clear picture of your options and an honest answer about what it will take.
Let us deal with the stress and hassle of dealing with the IRS. We represent you before the IRS so you never have to face an audit alone.
Years behind on filings? We reconstruct your records, file what is missing, and negotiate penalties down wherever possible.
When collection action has already started, timing is everything. We act quickly to stop levies and negotiate a way out.
We run the numbers first and tell you honestly whether a settlement, an installment agreement, or another path is your best option.

He guided me through a tax situation that involved qualified IRA money that was used to pay for a Memory Care Unit. My mother and family had a tax burden removed.
Dave Rike has been our business accountant for over twelve years. He has been very easy to work with, informative, helpful and always there when we need him. Thank You Dave!
I have been very pleased that Mr. Rike had been able to answer my numerous questions through the year and also helped me file a successful amended return. Very thankful for his expertise.
